Herbert Daniel Gebauer - 06/01/2018

One out of the two other caves (see: Cave of –>Shiva, Bhojpur) which MUNTHE et alii (1975: 22) did not visit but heard rumours … [according to which] are both [note 1] stated to be [at an unspecified distance] east of the point where we crossed the Sun Kosi [note 2] south-west of Bhojpur [note 3], and are near the river. One is rumoured to contain some sort of skull … Strictly interpreted, Munthe's directions point to the final stretch of the Sun Koshi (circa N26°55: E087°00 to 87°12-) upstream of where it joins the Saptakoshi at Tribeni (note 4). In a wider sense, the directions point to about anywhere around Tribeni in the districts of Bhojpur, Dhankuta, Morang and Sunsari (Koshi zone) or Udayapur (Sagarmatha zone).One out of the two other caves (see: Cave of –>Shiva, Bhojpur) which MUNTHE et alii (1975: 22) did not visit but heard rumours … [according to which] are both [note 1] stated to be [at an unspecified distance] east of the point where we crossed the Sun Kosi [note 2] south-west of Bhojpur [note 3], and are near the river.
